DUI Accidents Are Different.

Here’s Why You Need Specialized Help.

Criminal AND Civil Cases Run Together

While prosecutors handle the criminal case, you need someone fighting for your compensation in civil court. These cases happen at the same time—but serve different purposes.

Punitive Damages Available

Unlike regular accidents, DUI cases in Georgia have no cap on punitive damages. That can mean millions more in compensation for your pain and suffering.

Evidence Disappears Fast

Security footage is erased in 30–90 days. Witness memories fade. Vehicle data gets overwritten. Every day you wait weakens your case.

Insurance Gets Complicated

Georgia minimums are only $25,000. DUI drivers often have inadequate coverage. We help you identify and maximize every policy available to you.

Only 2 Years to File Suit

Georgia law gives you exactly two years from the date of the crash. Miss the deadline, and your right to compensation is gone—forever.

Medical Bills Keep Coming

Emergency care is just the start. You may need surgery, rehab, therapy, and future treatment. We fight for everything you’re owed—not just what insurance wants to pay.
